I have recently come to own a 1966 Farmall 140. I've checked my serial numbers and I am sure of the year. I know nothing about the tractor. It has turf tires and came with a Mott hammer mower attachment connected to it. I was told all it was used for was to cut fields at a country school. Many acres of field grass. Everything ran fine until this year. I tried starting it and found the push button had rusted and shorted out. I replaced the push button, points and condensor. Still can't get it running. (no spark)I don't know if it has a generator or alternator. It's all pianted over. It's a 12volt system because that's what battery is in it. The coil is also painted so I can't tell if the new one is supposed to be internal or external resistance. So I haven't replaced that yet. I would really like to get it going so I can slowly restore it to almost showroom to drive around in our local parades. I know its only a 1966 but it's old to me. Any help would be appreciated.
